Is aching arm and shoulder another meno symptom? I feel like my muscles are in knots, very sore to touch back of neck/shoulder. Tried anti inflammatory and exercise eased a bit but still very sore. Any other suggestions? I feel like an old woman, sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, just when I think I am coping another symptom appears

It could be the start of frozen shoulder Yammy1 which is really common in menopause. You could have just pulled a muscle though.

I have this too. I've seen a physio and a chiropractor, both of who ease it, and have given me coping strategies, but I find it still comes and goes. The joys of getting older!!!x

Thank you all at least it's not just me, I just put some deep heat on so hopefully will ease a bit, that article is very interesting Taz2 as I have type 2 diabetes and seemingly it can be related. I will do gentle exercises as best I can and see if that helps' If not then it's a visit to doc.

I've struggled with upper back and rib pain for the last couple of weeks, just been docs and he couldn't feel anything or have any answers so I guess it is part of the whole meno experience!!!

Hi Yammy, do you have restricted movement in your shoulder joint? I had a slight frozen shoulder several years ago, I was given exercises to get movement back. If a lot of muscles are painful, then you could possibly try magnesium spray. I posted in the joint aches thread about my experience using the spray:

Hope you feel better soon!

Thank you ryansgranny, I will look into the magnesium spray. I recently started liquid iron in vit c and just started evening primrose so I will give this a chance to hopefully kick in, but I carried a suitcase a few days ago and I'm now wondering if I strained shoulder.
